Wow, a long book but worth the time. It's an interesting weave of past and present threads, that eventually converge. And it's got some interesting tidbits for computer and cryptography geeks!

Interesting science fiction novel that contemplates the existence of God, his, her, or its nature, and whether or not we humans are even capable of truly understanding morality. And it even manages to be an entertaining read!

Now I've seen what all the bluster was about. A good read, but nothing all that impressive sticks out about it. Good for a relaxing break from the world around, but nothing I'd read twice.
